Everyone likes to blame tech for things like addiction, but every great advantage has a disadvantage. It comes with a price. Our ultimate goal is have humans control the tech and robots, and not reverse. Sadly with the rise of tech addiction, this may become a possibility soon

A joke is something you may do, especially in this context, to ingratiate yourself to others. I tried to lighten the mood because I was slightly self conscious that your comment was obvious so I just announced that fact so we could laugh about it.

Making fun of someone targets them to attempt to lower them to make yourself look taller and is exploitive to increase your own position. Not something I do.

Id say it has made life easier in regard to less physical labor, but id argue that it opens another door way to mental and emotional fatigue. It has more to do with moderation i think than what kind of work it is.

Also it has totally made our life easier. And those people who say no, then are dumb bc they wouldn't be talking to us without it. if they are anti tech, then don't talk about it and go meditate in the forest

The internet has made our lives easier. Talking to people around the world in a timely manner is possible, getting information and conducting research is a lot easier, etc. Lots of benefits we experience due to the internet.
